Restart

Friday, June 27, 2008

Well, my friends, today is the new beginning for me. Dealing with tons of stress and a lot of heartache, I'd let Sparkpeople slide to the point that I wasn't even logging on to spin the wheel anymore. It just seemed too much extra effort. And yes, I started gaining weight again, as my anti-depressant of choice is ice cream.

So, the good news is that I spent a lot of time this week catching up on sleep, and I woke up this morning ready to do a restart! Those new consistency streaks played a large part in this as well! Thus, I weighed and measured myself (up 4 pounds, and 1 inch on waist and hips), then reset my goal line, and reset the streaks, and am ready to go! ; )

With my crazy travel schedule, I'm still supposed to find time to log in to my work website and register stuff. Remembering that my health is equally important, and that I should be logging in to Sparkpeople as well is my new goal.

Speaking of goals, I'm back to my fastbreak goals of logging in every day, tracking my nutrition, and writing a comment somewhere on the website. It's the tracking the nutrition that will be wildly helpful!

And yes, I need to exercise more, and go swimming while I'm at the hotel. It should be fun!

Good for you girl. I too had to "restart". I got sick and then just fell away. I am back into my workouts and swimming everyday. I know I have to make time to post each day. It only takes a few minutes, but sometimes those few minutes get lost. Stay in touch, we'll keep eachother going. Hugs, Glenda
